Description The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) has identified a requirement for the repair or replacement of generators/hydraulic turbines and large motors/pumps following failures of generation or pumping equipment. Reclamation is organized into five regions across 17 states west of the Mississippi River; California-Great Basin (CGB), Missouri Basin (MB), Lower Colorado Basin (LCB), Upper Colorado Basin (UCB), and Columbia-Pacific Northwest (CPN) that may issue task orders under this IDIQ. Reclamation's hydropower infrastructure ranges from unit capacity of 350 Kilowatts to 805 Megawatts and pumps up to 50 Megawatts. Approximately 50-percent of the units fall between 1-50 Megawatts. Overall, Reclamation has a total of 176 hydro units (turbines and pump-turbines) and 6 large pumps rated at or above 50MW. This contract will provide expedited response capability for non-routine maintenance and corrective maintenance. This contract may also be used to perform non-routine deferred maintenance and assessments at Reclamation hydroelectric and irrigation facilities. Projects that have design changes or modifications, such as rehabilitations and overhauls due to end of design life or required corrective action, can be completed through this contract once they have completed the proper design process. This contract is not meant as a substitute for preventative maintenance. Potential equipment and systems which may be included in the scope of work includes, but is not limited to, turbines, generators, pumps, motors, and auxiliary systems. The scope of work may include, but is not limited to, assessments, inspections, analysis, design, documentation, as-found and as-built drawings, unit disassembly and reassembly, onsite machining, required equipment/tooling for work, manufacturing and fabrication of new components, refurbishment and rehabilitation of existing components, testing, and commissioning. The scope of work may require both on-site and off-site tasks. Some services may require response and completion within 30 days of task order award. Contract performance may require execution of multiple and simultaneous task order requirements at various locations. The period of performance for this IDIQ is expected to be five years from the date of award and is anticipated to be a multiple award IDIQ with a maximum value of $49 million. See attached Scope of Work for additional information. 3. Requested Responses Please provide the following information in response to the Sources Sought: 1.
